The stress surrounding the journey to, transition into and experience of motherhood is often not spoken about and can feel overwhelming and lonely. We are taught to rely on our personal support systems, but what happens when those supports are removed or limited? Negative thoughts can creep in: hopelessness, sadness, and self-doubt cloud your vision. I offer therapy for those who are struggling to cope with a role transition, experiencing grief, low mood, distressing thoughts, infertility, pregnancy, perinatal mood disorders, or feeling isolated and alone.

Life is hard sometimes. Mental health, relationship problems, grief, and the many other challenges that come with being human, can throw a wrench into our wellbeing and life plans. Leaning on support is a normal and healthy way to help navigate these realities - which is where therapy comes in. I will ask questions to help you understand yourself, your emotions, and your behaviour. This understanding can lead to clarity on old patterns, greater acceptance of what is, or a path to change if change feels needed.

We all want to be heard and to have a place of validation as we navigate life issues. Knowing someone cares to listen and support as we come to accept difficult circumstances or make decisions for change can help us move through these challenging times. Areas of focus are depression, anxiety, coping strategies, workplace issues, caregiver burnout, palliative/end of life, grief and loss, chronic pain and illness.

A truth of life and living is that painful things happen to us. And when painful things happen, emotional residue, such as grief, despair, anxiety, and interpersonal trouble is often the cargo we are faced with. These deeply personal experiences create different layers to who we are and impact what we bring to our relationships with others and to ourselves. Therapy with me offers you a space to forego pretense and to find a way back to your true self and to all the things that matter most to you.

At your core you know who you are, what you believe, the kind of relationships you want to have and the kind of life you want to build. Trauma, anxiety, grief, loss and relationship problems can take up so much mental space that it can feel impossible to envision that life. These experiences can be isolating and it may be hard to reach out for help at the times you need it the most. Everyone deserves time and space to be listened to and supported.

Most of us at some point in our lives need someone to talk to and someone to listen to us, someone that can provide us with a safe place to just be; a sanctuary that allows us to be with our feelings, to get in touch with our needs and our hearts. Whether it is relationship difficulties, job loss, illness, death of a loved one, addiction or mental health concerns that have brought you to my website; all these life transitions can tax our ability to cope in healthy ways leaving us stressed, sleepless and overwhelmed while the rest of our lives seemingly unravel.

Life can seem truly overwhelming at times, especially in our day and age when global concerns may compound our more personal stressors. Many people have carried the weight of distressing, sometimes traumatic, events with them throughout life, only to find one day that this weight has become crushing. Even those who have gone through life with relative ease may suddenly feel overwhelmed by difficult situations, such as physical or mental illness, the death of a loved one, relationship or parenting problems, divorce or other life transitions.
